No it makes the action casual & forgettable, there is no
meaningful emotional conflict or risk to using them so it just the
"too bleak, stopped caring" trope in print & at the table. Everyone the players meet is some flavor of capital E Evil on the absolute morality axis, the only one doing or possibly struggling with doing anything "amoral" in DiA is zariel & she too is stuck on the absolute morality axis gone sideways.
blackrazor carries more "hmm... I dunno" questions of morality.
That "HAHA IT'S EVIL... LOOK HOW EVIL IT IS" miss is something I unfortunately expect to be continued with any of the new stuff coming along that involves darker & more serious concepts like darksun & such if we see them at all.
